Who was John Mayne, and how did he impact the evaluation world? Sebastian Lemire co-authored three articles on Mayne’s work in a special edition of The Canadian Journal of Program Evaluation. These pieces highlight Mayne’s contributions to the field and encourage readers to reflect on how they can apply John’s work to their own evaluation practice. The articles cover Mayne’s career as both a practical thinker and practitioner, his written work, and the eight themes that comprise the essence of his work.
- Remembering John Mayne—A Practical Thinker and a Thinking Practitioner
- Mapping the Contributions of John Mayne: Bridging the Gaps Between Evaluation, Auditing, and Performance Monitoring
- Using Evaluative Information Sensibly: The Enduring Contributions of John Mayne
